05:14 philbot joined #sourcefu
05:44 pdurbin hello world!
05:45 pdurbin i've been pretty happy with how my #crimsonfu experiment has gone and i'm hoping to replicate it here, with a few changes
05:46 pdurbin first, i'm thinking #sourcefu will have a different list of topics vs. http://crimsonfu.github.com/topics
05:47 pdurbin i mean, there's sure to be some overlap
05:47 pdurbin perl, python, ruby, and vagrant are certainly on topic here too
05:48 pdurbin and other topics from #crimsonfu as they're added to the list
05:49 pdurbin but i'm thinking the audience for this channel will be slightly different...
05:49 pdurbin crimsonfu's tagline is "sysadmins who code"
05:49 pdurbin i'm not sure what the tagline will be for #sourcefu yet
05:50 pdurbin (suggestions welcome)
05:51 pdurbin uh... "code monkey chat" ... i dunno
05:52 pdurbin many things will be the same... especially the guiding principles
05:52 pdurbin - None of us is as smart as all of us
05:53 pdurbin - Open source by default
05:53 pdurbin - When in doubt, make it public
05:54 pdurbin if you like #crimsonfu, i think you'll like it here. i plan to hang out in both places
05:55 pdurbin but the idea is that #sourcefu is more about the source, the coding
05:55 pdurbin we'll see how it goes
05:56 pdurbin i'm cautiously optimistic :)
05:56 pdurbin the nice thing is that it's a green field. the members of this channel get to define themselves
05:57 pdurbin it'll have its own culture, i bet
05:58 pdurbin time to announce its existence, i guess :)
06:11 pdurbin ok, i announced it on #crimsonfu: http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2012-11-28#i_6191375
06:13 pdurbin as i mentioned on twitter the other day, i'm going to be diving into a java web app soon when i start my new job in a couple weeks: https://twitter.com/philipdurbin/status/273229031082692608
06:14 pdurbin the code is in svn on sourceforge: https://dvn.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/dvn/dvn-app/trunk
06:15 pdurbin and i played around a bit with converting it to git with svn2git: https://github.com/nirvdrum/svn2git
06:15 pdurbin time rsync -av 'dvn.svn.sourceforge.net::svn/dvn/*' .
06:15 pdurbin (14 minutes)
06:16 pdurbin time svn2git file:///home/pdurbin/dvn-svn2git/source --trunk dvn-app/trunk --branches dvn-app/branches
06:16 pdurbin (30 minutes)
06:16 pdurbin but i'm not even exactly sure i'm doing the conversion right... i'll have to check with team about how the code is organized
06:18 pdurbin anyway, assuming i'm doing this somewhat right, my next thought was to get a sense of how many lines of code there are. i found `cloc` for this: http://cloc.sourceforge.net (Count Lines Of Code)
06:19 pdurbin it's showing 98,382 lines of Java, not including blank lines or comments
06:19 pdurbin seems like kind of a lot :)
06:20 pdurbin anyway, i knew it would be a lot of code, which is why the other day i re-listened to this: Episode 148: Software Archaeology with Dave Thomas | Software Engineering Radio - http://www.se-radio.net/2009/11/episode-148-software-archaeology-with-dave-thomas/
06:20 pdurbin which i highly recommend
06:21 pdurbin i like how he talks about trying to get a big picture of the code
06:21 pdurbin trying to find the main entry point
06:21 pdurbin trying to get into the heads of the developers who wrote it
06:22 pdurbin building some scaffolding around the code (version control) so you can make changes and annotate them
06:24 pdurbin i also want to make sure i have a decent understanding of how the code is deployed in production, so i created this vagrant repo: https://github.com/pdurbin/dvn-vagrant
06:25 pdurbin it could possibly double as a demo for anyone who wants to kick the tires the web app, in a virtual machine on their laptop or whatever

15:37 matt1337357 @pdurbin: what are you thinking of for topics?
15:40 pdurbin MATT1337357: why is your nick shouting? :)
15:41 pdurbin topics: anything related to software development
15:41 semiosis whats the best editor/ide?
15:41 * semiosis ducks
15:42 MATT1337357 ha - i thought Irc was mostly about shouting and trolling...
15:42 pdurbin semiosis: sure, that's allowed
15:43 MATT1337357 I've been doing a lot of development work in nodejs and obj-c nowadays
15:43 MATT1337357 after using node for a bit, i really dislike standard apache setups
15:44 pdurbin matt1337357: thank you ;)
15:44 pdurbin ironcamel: you're always grumpy about apache
15:44 matt1337357 apache just feels... dated
15:45 matt1337357 you can do a lot of really awesome real-time data stuff in node
15:46 matt1337357 mostly thinking about... working with twitter, instagram, and facebook API's
15:46 pdurbin i'd like to add a hubot to this channel. it runs on node and is written in coffeescript: http://hubot.github.com
15:47 matt1337357 does it work just like any other bot?
15:47 matt1337357 like event triggered... command oriented
15:48 matt1337357 neat it's deployable on heroku
15:48 pdurbin dunno but it's supposed to be awesome

16:11 eric02138 joined #sourcefu
16:12 eric02138 Hello Interwebs!
16:12 eric02138 Interwebs is quiet.  I demand instant gratification.
16:13 matt1337357 http://bit.ly/Wvf0kW
16:13 eric02138 Much better.
16:14 pdurbin eric02138: you could catch up... http://irclog.greptilian.com/sourcefu/2012-11-28
16:24 raprasad pdurbin: I ran the cloc on the mcb site.  For the python part it's giving 15,182 loc.  That includes modules for the personnel database (2,612 loc) and one-time content migration scripts (2,526 loc).
16:28 pdurbin raprasad: interesting. is that your biggest code base?
16:28 pdurbin (you've been busy!)
16:29 raprasad I think spinal was bigger--but that would be spinal 2 years ago
16:30 raprasad addicted to this cloc script.  now running it over more projects from last 2 years
16:32 pdurbin raprasad: yeah
16:32 raprasad 33,920 python loc.  blah.. hard to count html, js without digging in, avoiding jquery modules, etc.
16:32 pdurbin "Analyzed over 2 years ago" -- http://www.ohloh.net/p/dvn ... anyone know how to make ohloh re-analyze your code? is there some other service for this these days?
